Damn that TDKR 4 parter! I just needed it to do $580m OS. I was sure I was gonna get that right a few weeks ago!!! And some people around here have been arguing that TDKR is meeting every expectation outside the US. Pff, obviously not since tons of people had it doing at least $580m by labor day.

Well huge congrats to Dex, AA, and Jajang.

Too bad AA and Jajang quit long ago.

I'd just like to say that this is the worst stretch of points I've ever had in the entire time I've been playing the game. First of all, I get impossible trivia questions given to me from the 7 of you...thanks a lot by the way....lol....then I completely put all my eggs in one basket and Expendables killed me. I really think I could have been top 3 this year but it wasn't meant to be.

Yeah sucks when one thing like that just kills you. I'm still ticked at the TDKR SOTM costing me 40k. I would still be in the top 3 if not for that.

Whatever film is the highest grossing by the end of the game. Dark Shadows is going to win this easily. Expendables and Paranorman won't hit 80 mill by the end of the game.

[MovieMan89]

Well I think Fake is winning unless he majorly screwed up on his top 11.

[baumer]

I don't ever want to hear from anyone that they are too far back to contend. This game goes right down to the very end. As you can now see, standings can change week to week. There are so many ways to get points and so many ways to lose them.Yes, Fake has played an absolutely brilliant game. But anything can happen in the top 11, and WW top 7. Still lots of points to give out.
